Hi.

I've been doing so many images with Aiko lately that I've been thinking of adding Hiro to my collection, but I don't seem to see him too often in the galleries...anyone know why?

Is he undersupported, misunderstood, or what?

I know he can take textures from David (M3? A3?) but is there much for him in terms of clothes, hair, etc.?

What can he share and with whom?

TIA

I use him mostly in commercial images.  Daz has clothes for him, but there aren't too many regular type clothes.  I think Xena has some outfits at PoserPros and oh yeah, there's a guy in the Freepository forum at Daz that has really good stuff (for free).  You can also use the David to Hiro character (or is it the other way around?) and put David clothes on him.

Odd Ditty Foundry recently released this set of clothing for him:

And they have additional clothing for him that should be out soon as well, in a more casual vein.

Adding Hiro to an Aiko render really seems to make the image seem a little more interesting -- the two just look good together.

They DO look good together, be it anime kawaii style or something much more realistic :) Here is a sfreebie set of poses for these two, you can get it at 4blueyes.com - my sig. He is undersupported though. Well, anything except V3 is undersupported anyway :) kitty5

Don't forget he is supported by the wardrobe wizard.

As mentioned before, Hiro makes great companion for Aiko, both in her toony and realistic versions. He can use any MilleniumGen3 male texture (female too, but too much makeup doesn't suit him :P) and indeed comes with H3-to-D3 figure, allowing to put David clothes on him (similar to A3-to-SP3 figure which comes with A3 Complete). It sometimes makes life easier (there's cool Imagination Gown for David at DAZ freebie archives, makes nice wizard for Hiro too ;) ), but there's more freebie clothes for Hiro than for David... and they're of better quality, at least those made by Adzan (DAZ Freepository forum). Can't tell much about pay-for items, I'm buying stuff with GC's I won in various contests, that isn't awfully lot of purchases ;)  As for hair, usually any Aiko hair fits Hiro too - at linked pic Hiro wears Nyoko Hair (Aiko stock hairdo) without any tweaking.

Personally Hiro is my third favourite figure - right after House Mouse and Aiko ^.^

In few words: if you like Aiko style, and you need man for her, Hiro is the best and only right choice :)

I like hiro, specially the morphs are great. There some good stuff, but remmember that M3 is the Male for excellence, check Ravnheart, geometrya and lucferino store and see some good morphs and characters!

If you like doing anime and manga type scenes, yes, Hiro is good to have around.  But he is also pretty cool in realistic mode. 

I've made him into my transgendered 3D VR Self.  He does quite well at that too.  If you are allowed to look, then see my version of Hiro here:

I agree on the need for more regular clothes. I would also like a 'genitals pack' to give a 'regular porportioned bit of anatomy'. Nothing extreme or porn like, just the same as seen for M3 / David.

I like him, too, and usually pair him with Aiko in my gallery as often as I can. From Fortune Hunters to Mermaid/Merman, they look great together. And A_ has a great set of poses for the pair in the MP. Don't forget to grab the ones by 4blueyes, too, excellent work!
